Ingredients
6 garlic cloves, sliced
1 medium red onion, roughly chopped
2–3” piece of fresh ginger, sliced
1–2 fresh cayenne peppers, chopped (substitute any hot pepper)
1/4 c fresh horseradish, chopped
1/4 c fresh turmeric, chopped
1 medium blood orange, sliced into wheels
1/4 c fresh or frozen cranberries
a few hibiscus flowers (optional for color)
handful, fresh pine needles
pinch, high-mineral salt
raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar
raw, local-to-you honey
Instructions
- In a 1-quart (32-oz) mason jar, combine all ingredients, except the honey, adding the vinegar last. As long as everything is washed and clean, there’s no need to peel any of the roots.
- Allow the mixture to infuse for 2 weeks, shaking daily.
- When 2 weeks are up, strain out the solids using a fine mesh strainer or nut milk bag. Discard or compost the plant matter.
- Add the honey, mixing well to combine; shake before use.
